Hey cyrius, because of the new site change it looks like it cleared out the images. No worries though, i will hopefully fix that some time this week user added image

(sigh). Great job so far man, nice robot user added image

. One thing i think it could be is that if you made a skeleton for the guy, that your arm joint is too close to the hip, and it is thinking its part of your arm. I suggest upping the size of your model and then redoing the skeleton so that the bones are not so close. Maybe that would work user added image

i did two shaders and i need your comments to decide which i ll use in the final render : choose between Shader test 1 ( simple with noise on bump )
and shader test 2 ( with a ramp in "reflectivity"and "reflected color")
and M, when will we have to show the final render?

TEST1 :
